Well if your like me...I'd buy it. The responsible person would save. BUT you've already done the most important part...you did not buy the watch off of inpulse now you'll enjoy the watch much more, regardless if you choose to save or not. So did you check the item out on Ebay to see if it's cheaper.

Well like I said I'd buy it. You can afford it...just make sure the collections company isn't planning on suing you this month for the balance due.

If it's something you've been longing for all this time and now you the chance to buy it, what else are you waiting for? But if you think you can survive without it then save your money for other things. But if I were you, I would definitely buy it and maybe if I don't want it anymore later, I can resell it. Hope this sounds good to you.

Well, it's your money you spent on that watch so why would other people bother you? And if you said you can sell it for more then that's a big plus.

true indeed , yeah if i ever do get tired of it i could resell it back for more than i bought it for , i do have money coming in the following weeks, so i should be alright , but then again i dont want people to think im a snobbish person and say " Ohhh he has a 200 dollar watch on the nerve of him " etc etc , you , but thats just hate and envy so i can less abot that

You should save so you can have more money for when you buy.

For me, i prefer to buy it... or not i will regret!!! It seems that "watch" is being watched by you. All in your head now is thinking about "special" edition. Last time, i wanna buy something, but i didn't. I am regret... Its not good to regret!

well last night i was actually talking to the seller so i closed the deal and bought the watch....so ill have to pay for it either today to tommrow kinda funny tho cause i was watching 2 of the watches on ebay and they are going at least hit the 250 300 dollar mark so i save a 100 bucks plus its brand new in the package , and yes it so true to regret i dont like that feeling at all, epsically when you didnt have money at that time and now you do but you cant find that item but for right now after this watch , ill just save , nothing like having money growing in your bank account

Buy it, gshock are the best watches, mine isn't a special edition but I love it, I won't part with it. If you don't you may lose it but it's not clear from your post, will you lose the chance of buying it, if you don't now.

Save!!! you need to pay off that paypal agency well you don't need to I'm not telling you what to do just simply suggestin you do then your credit is great for paypal and the don't put a limit on spending. plus you'll probably find a nicer watch for less if you want a nice watch for cheap go to bidz.com seriously same concept as ebay but way better and it's strictly for jewlery and watches...

Buy it! HAHAHA It all depends on what you're saving your money for. If you're saving your money to buy yourself something nice, then go buy the watch! It's what you've been working hard for! But if you're earning to save up, then while you can still sleep without the watch in your possession then you can still let it slide :D Thanks for the responses on my discussion! They were honest and hilarious LOL
